Philippians 1

Gen Z: Philippians 1

1Paul and Timmy, the homies of Jesus, shoutout to all the saints in Christ at Philippi, with the squad and deacons:

2Sending you mad grace and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, no cap.

3I’m grateful to God every time I think of you, for real.

4Always praying for you with good vibes and joy, no doubt.

5For your squad goals in the gospel since day one, it’s been lit!

6I’m totally sure that the one who started this good work in you is gonna keep it going until Jesus comes back, periodt.

7It’s only right I think this way about you all, ‘cause you’re in my heart; even while I’m locked up, you’re still riding with me in this gospel hustle.

8God knows how much I miss you all, straight up in the feels, like Jesus vibes.

9I’m praying that your love just keeps growing in knowledge and good judgment, fr.

10So you can vibe check what’s excellent; be real and chill until the day of Christ.

11Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, is straight-up for the glory and praise of God, no cap.

12But listen up, fam, the stuff that went down with me actually helped the gospel pop off.

13So like, my chains in Christ are known all over the palace and beyond, fr.

14And a bunch of my bros in the Lord are getting rizz from my chains, speaking the word way more boldly, no fear.

15Some are out here preaching Christ outta envy and drama, while others are doing it from a good place, bet.

16One group is preaching Christ for the clout, not keeping it real, thinking they can make my chains worse, sus.

17But the other crew is all about love, knowing I’m here to defend the gospel, for real.

18So what’s the deal? Honestly, no matter the vibes, whether fake or real, Christ is getting preached, and I’m vibing with that, periodt.

19I know this is gonna lead to my salvation through your prayers and the Spirit of Jesus Christ coming through, fr.

20Based on my hype and hope, I ain't gonna be ashamed, but with all the boldness, just like always, Christ’s gonna be lit in my life or death.

21For me, living is all about Christ, and dying? That's just a glow-up, fr.

22But if I’m just vibing in the flesh, that’s my hustle; still, I’m not sure what to pick, no cap.

23I’m stuck between two worlds, lowkey wanting to bounce and chill with Christ, which is way better, periodt.

24But honestly, sticking around in the flesh is more clutch for you all.

25With this confidence, I know I’ll stick with you guys, boosting your faith and joy, it’s gonna be lit.

26So that your hype can be even more lit in Jesus Christ when I roll back to you.

27Just keep your vibes right and live like the gospel of Christ; whether I’m there or not, I wanna hear you’re all united, grinding together for the faith.

28And don’t let your haters scare you; that’s just proof of their downfall, but for you, it’s a sign of salvation, straight from God.

29You’re getting the chance to rep Christ, not just to believe, but also to take some hits for Him, no cap.

30You’re facing the same struggles you saw in me, and now you hear I’m still in the game.

KJV: Philippians 1

1Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

2Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

5For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

6Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

7Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

8For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

9And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

10That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;

11Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

12But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

13So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

14And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

15Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

16The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

17But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

18What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

19For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

20According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

21For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

22But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

23For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

24Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

25And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

26That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

27Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

28And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

29For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

30Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.
